Let?s begin with a review of several terms that you may already know. Define: gene: A discrete unit of hereditary information consisting of a specific nucleotide sequence in DNA (or RNA, in some viruses) locus: A specific place along the length of a chromosome where a given gene is located gamete: A haploid reproductive cell, such as an egg or sperm. Gametes unite during sexual reproduction to produce a diploid zygote. male gamete: Sperm female gamete: Eggs

Copyright ? 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. - 1 - Name_______________________Period___________ Chapter 12: The Cell Cycle Overview: 1. What are the three key roles of cell division? State each role, and give an example. Key Role Example Reproduction An amoeba, a single-celled eukaryote, divides into two cells. Each new cell will be an individual organism. Growth and development A sand dollar embryo forms two cells shortly after the fertilized egg is divided. Tissue removal Dividing bone marrow cells will give rise to new blood cells. 2. What is meant by the cell cycle? The cell cycle is the life of a cell from the time it is first formed from a dividing parent cell until its own division into two daughter cells.

Define the two catabolic pathways: Fermentation ? a partial degradation of sugars that occurs without the use of oxygen? Cellular respiration ? when oxygen is consumed as a reactant along with the organic fuel; most efficient catabolic pathway; mitochondria house most of the metabolic equipment needed ??

Chapters 4, 5 & 6 Outline (Review This For The Test!) Chapter 4 (Folk and Popular Culture) Key Issue 1: Where Are Folk and Popular Leisure Activities Distributed? Culture is defined as a collection of social customs; customs are repetitive acts of groups. Repetitive acts of individuals are called habits. Chapter 4 focuses on two facets of material culture: (1) culture deriving from the necessities of daily life such as food, clothing and shelter, and (2) leisure activities such as the arts and recreation.

Chapter 55: Ecosystems Ecosystems Ecosystem = sum of all the organisms living within its boundaries (biotic community) + abiotic factors with which they interact Involves two unique processes: Energy flow Chemical cycling Overview of energy & nutrient dynamics Energy Flow in an Ecosystem Energy cannot be recycled ? must be constantly supplied to an ecosystem (mostly by SUN) The autotrophs (?self feeders?) are the primary producers, and are usually photosynthetic (plants or algae). They use light energy to synthesize sugars and other organic compounds. Heterotrophs (?other feeders?) ? can?t make own food Heterotrophs are at trophic levels above the primary producers and depend on their photosynthetic output.

Chapter 54: Community Ecology Community = group of populations of different species living close enough to interact Interspecific interactions Can be positive (+), negative (-) or neutral (0) Includes: Competition (-/-) Predation (+/-) Herbivory (+/-) Symbiosis ? parasitism, mutualism, commensalism Facilitation (+/+ or 0/+) Interspecific competition: resources are in short supply Species interaction is -/- Competitive exclusion principle: Two species cannot coexist in a community if their niches are identical. The one with the slight reproductive advantage will eliminate the other Resource partitioning: differences in niches that enable similar species to coexist Ecological niche: the sum total of an organism?s use of abiotic/biotic resources in the environment
